72 Olds Cutlass Supreme Air Clearner Needed

I am looking for the original air cleaner for a 4 barrel carb. If anyone has one or knows someone who does please let me know. BTW the air cleaner looks like the one below my post!

The picture you linked to with the intake hose is a late 70's - early '80s air cleaner. You want this one:

Shouldn't be too hard to find.

I think I have one in the garage. Its not in show condition, but could be cleaned up pretty easy. Chances are it will cost a lot to ship to VA. I live in Alberta Canada. I know Canada Post will be pricey, don't know about UPS or Fedex ground. If you can't find one closer, LMK and maybe we can work something out? Have you checked ebay or Craigslist in your area? I can't believe there's nothing around you. Have you checked the local wrecking yards? These air cleaners come up on ebay fairly often for some bargain prices. I've been tempted to buy a couple just to take to swap meets.

The air cleaner you are looking for will be basically the same for a 4bbl 350 or 4bbl 455 for the Olds model years 1968-72. (could also be from a B Body). After 72 they started putting the snorkels on the driver side, which means your heat riser and thermac won't work properly.

You're correct, it's supposed to have the Rocket 350 sticker. Someone put the wrong sticker on that particular one, even though it's in a '72 Supreme. The important part was showing him which air cleaner unit is correct.

I have one, $50 plus shipping. If you want it sandblasted, painted correctly and ready to bolt on it will be $125
